5. I/O Config
Summary:
On I/O configuration menu, you can configure I/O video, test patterns and preview monitoring output
setting.
Input config: It displays current input video and audio settings.
Output config: It displays current output setting.
Test pattern: enables to test output port b using built-in test pattern.
Monitor out: Allows users to view any input source before making any switch.
5.1. Input configuration
FAQ:
Q: When do I need to use input configuration? Why is it so important to know?
A: It is applicable to only specific PM’s Input board types such as CAT5 (HDBaseT), Fiber and DVI. For
example, HDMI-only input board doesn’t apply to this since it only has HDMI input port for use. PM’s
CAT5 (HDBaseT), Fiber, and DVI board comes standard with HDMI port built in parallel. So it is important
that you know which port you need to select whenever you use the CAT5, Fiber, or DVI input board for
PM matrix router. The only difference between input config and output config is that you have a full control
of video and audio setting in the input config mode but there is only audio setting available in the output
config.
PureLink by Dtrovision

Q: Can you explain the definition of both video & audio menu?
A: In video menu, there are three ways to configure the video input port:
1. SA - auto detect mode input will automatically detect the first active video signal.
2. SM - Select HDMI port.
3. SS - Select DVI port, CAT5 port, or Fiber port.
There are three ways to configure audio setting on input board:
1. AA - audio in auto mode, PM will detect audio between embedded audio from HDMI port (or PM
transmitter) and inserted audio from 3.5mm audio port on input board, and outputs whichever is active.
2. AS - Use embedded audio from either HDMI port on input board or HDMI port on PM transmitter
(CAT5 or Fiber)
3. AJ - Use inserted audio from 3.5mm stereo audio port on input board.
5.2. Output configuration
FAQ:
Q: When do I need to use my output config option? Why is it so important to know before installation
starts?
A: It is applicable to only specific PM’s output board type such as CAT5 (HDBaseT), Fiber and DVI.
For example HDMI-only output board doesn’t apply to this since it only has HDMI output port for use
PM’s CAT5 (HDBaseT), Fiber and DVI output board comes standard with a HDMI port built in parallel.

The only difference between input config and output config is that you have a full control of video and
audio setting in the input config mode, but there is only audio setting available in the output config
mode.
Q: How to use HDMI/SDI audio and CAT5/Fiber audio setting?
A: There are three ways to configure output board’s HDMI/SDI audio setting
(Or CAT5/Fiber audio setting).
1.1A (2A):
PM series matrix router will detect signal between embedded audio from router’s input and inserted
audio from output boards 3.5mm stereo audio jack and output whichever is active. If both 1S (2S) and
1J (2) are active, it will output 1S (2S). Factory default is set to 1S (2S)
2.1S (2S) embedded audio represents audio from selected input’s audio.
3.1J(2J) 3.5mm stereo audio represents inserted audio from output boards 3.5mm stereo audio jack.
5.3. Test pattern
FAQ:
Q: What is the purpose of test pattern option?
A: It is one of the most convenient features in PM matrix because you can perform quick and easy test
on each individual output port without using the actual video source.
PureLink by Dtrovision
14
Q: How many different resolution and test pattern are there?
A: Video Resolution Test Pattern
1024 x 768 @ 60Hz Color bars
